octcdf is on the list, spline-gcvspl is non-free and without maintainer
(which is the long version of "no").

+1 for netlib, which after 20 years still doesn't put any license onto
its files. It seems people in Netlib land never die and are always
available for questions about their code.
In another 20 years, we will be in a situation where the Mathworks file
exchange is a better source for Free software than Netlib.
